Printing Outline Codes in PS2003

[Aaron Miller - JHA]

I have inherited a working solution in Project Server 2003. We've been
runnign this system for three years now and we're getting ready to move to
PS2007.

I would like to have a way to print out all of my current ouline codes and
customized fields. This documenation was not done originally. I have tried
this a couple of times manually, but it's terribly cumbersome.

I have read through a few of the discussions about going to
MSP_OUTLINE_CODES, however, this doesn't really give the output in a
formatted manner.

Does anyone have any good suggestions on how I can drop my outline codes to
an excel spreadsheet and keep the formatting in-tact?

Thanks,
Aaron Miller

Aaron -

There is no easy solution to do this. Some company's have developed a
solution for PS2003. I am pretty sure that Bogdanov and Associates
have one and it's not very expensive. As a matter of fact, there is a
trial period.

See this link: http://www.bogdanov-associates.com/eng.asp?rubr_id=501


Of course, you can always just create a spreadsheet and copy and paste
the settings into it. That's what most of us do/did.

Hope this helped,

Hi Aaron,

I posted sample queries and list of outline code values on my website.
Use the appropriate SET @EntProjOutlineCode in the query; you can
retrieve the outline codes.
